Kristian Lines

My name is Kristian Allen Lines. I was born...and I’ve been drawing ever since.I’ve worked at many kind of jobs in my life just to get by, but I keep comingback to my art. It’s in me and I can’t do anything else and be happy. I’ve never really tried to make a living from my work until now. I’ve done some building illustrations and historical posters, but not enough to support myself. But nowI am ready for the world to see my work.

The Art

I am creator, not a re-creator. I don’t really care for drawing thingsthat are already there. I prefer to draw from my imagination. I envisionworlds and then visit them in my work.I find influence from the microscopic to the great expanse of the universe.

All my tones and colors are built from tiny squiggly lines.{squigglyism if you will} I work mostly with Micron PigmaPigment pens. They only come in a small assortment of colorsso to achieve the looks I desire I blend color with color to makeimages that vibrate in your brain. Much like impressionists.Sometimes I use marker and pastel but the squigglyism still applies.

My style is born from Automatic Art. Much more than simple “doodling”,I build shape upon shape and plane upon plane as though I were walkingthough an alien landscape which no one else has ever perceived.

As I draw, I play with positive and negative space so the eye is delightedto see a complicated array of shapes and patterns that excite and challengethe mind.

I don’t do cute and cuddly, but works that bring the viewer into thatwonderful place I call My Imagination.I hope you enjoy...
